Benefits
Horizontal Scalability – Entry balancing distributes data across multiple systems allowing you to horizontally grow your infrastructure to meet increasing business demands
Time and Resource Savings – Consistent logging format allows activity tracing from client application to directory server, along with options for filtering information
Reduced Downtime and Deployment Risk – With advanced load balancing and distribution, you can create a layer of isolation between LDAP clients and backend servers, which reduces the chance that clients will be affected by downtime
Features
High Availability –
Allows transparent failover between servers and ensures load balancing. Advanced health checking capabilities are also provided.
Horizontal Scalability and Performance –
Automatically distributes data across multiple systems (known as "entry balancing"), improving directory environment scalability and performance.
Data Mapping and Transformation –
Provides client interaction with the server using older names for directory content.
Load Balancing and Failover –
Spreads workloads across proxy servers in large data centers using directory load-balancing algorithms.
